Visitor visa experience in Belgrade
Though this is not helpful for many folks from India and China, I still wanted to share how my in-laws got their Visitor visa in US Consulate in Belgrade, former Yugoslavia.

I supplied all kinds of docs from our side:
-my latest H1 extension valid till march 2010
-my wife's H4 extension valid till march 2010
-our marriage certificate
- our driver's licenses
- 4 most recent pay stubs
- savings account balance
- 2006 tax return and W2
-employment verification letter from my employer
- invitiation letter
- I-134 forms

In-laws brought all kinds of docs with them
- proof for owning property, what and where, and how big it is
- pension slips

They first gave all the documents and waited for about half an hour to go to the window for an interview. Ater IO reviewed the docs, he called them to the window.

The interview in itself was brief but IO wanted to know the reason for this visit, my name and where I work, what my company does (in-laws did not know that - as if they care, they knew its something to do with computers, since I work there... ).

Anyway, tricky question was 'where does your daughter work?' And my father-in-law said that she does not work, her status in the US is as my familly member.

Ouh, and I found it hilarious that my parents-in-law kept forgetting what visa statuses we are in, so instead of saying H1 and H4 they kept repeating its B1 and B4. When IO said he never heard of those visas, my father-in-law said its work visa for me and spouse visa for my wife, and tell them to take a look in the documents, our extensions are there.
  

IO did not ask for our passports or visa stamps, he did not inquire about my GC process, though we are here 8 years in our respective H1/H4 statuses.

Other people where showing their air-fare reservations - but my father-in-law noticed IOs did not like that. I am so thankful my father -in-law read the situation correctly and kept his air reservations with him, not showing them with the rest of the documents.

Thats it folks, wanted to share how it goes elsewhere in the world...
